A Yorkshire Tragedy.

Then former sorrowes made me.

Mr. Oh kinde Wife, be comforted,
Once ioy is yet vnmurdered,
You have a boy at Nurse, your ioye's in him.

Wife. Dearer then all is my poore husbands life:
Heauen give my body sirength which yet is faint
With much expence of blood, and I will kneele,
Sue for his life, number vp all my friends,
To plead for pardon for my deare husbands life?

Mr. Was it in man to wound so kinde a creature?
Ile euer praise a woman for thy sake.
I must returne with griefe, my answer's set,
I shall bring newes weighes heauier then the debt.
Two brothers; one in bond lies ouerthrowne,
This, on a deadlier execution.

FINIS.
